REVIEW - Violet Voss Holy Grail palette.

-
hi everyone!
this is a quick review on the Violet Voss Holy Grail palette.
though this palette has been around for some time and has already made its way through to being a cult classic. there is nothing in this review that could say otherwise.

the pigment

oh the pigment!

is actually more than phenomenal. there is a perfect mixture between matte shades and shimmer shades, the shimmers have a range of finishes and the mattes are creamy and smooth.. 
the ONLY thing that i wish, is that there was a lighter red / pink than 'Wine N Dine' 
but I'm not too bothered i can work with what i have.

mine is well loved already for the whole two days and several looks i had been dying to create.
these will come in a later blog post where i show you guys how to recreate them!! woot woot.



time for the swatches!







i think its fair to say the pigment is next level..
here are a few pictures of looks i have done with this palette so far.
and for further updates please follow my instagram! 









i completely adore the pink tones in the shade wine n  dine

this is a shade that i have used frequently.
the shade 'transition' as it states is the most beautiful transition shade, mixed with either hashtag or R u kitten me, the shadows seem to blend seamlessly.






a shade that i honestly didn't think i would enjoy, as they're not ones i always go for are 'toffee' or 'so jelly'

however i have made myself incorporate them to give them a go and try them out. and I've actually really enjoyed how the shades have looked.











thank you all for reading! i will be putting up a new post within the next couple of days uploading how i do some of the looks posted as a mini series of blog posts!

Hi guys! wow its been a while since I've done a blogpost. but I'm feeling ever so determined to continue posting new content. for my first post back, i thought i would do a 'whats in my everyday makeup bag' and show you the products I'm currently using and loving.. so here we go.  the first being palettes! the Kat Von D shade and light eye palette £37  this is my main palette, as i use it for my eyebrows! of course i also use it on the eyes, but that is my main purpose. next is the Zoeva Matte palette £18  again these are pretty much my every day eyeshadow palettes. between the two there is a really nice mix of neutrals, warm tones and a few colours i like to play around with regularly. the last palette i use on an every day basis is the Zoeva Basic moment blush palette £13 . this carries a bronzer / contour shade, a blush and a highlighter, which is extremely handy that i can use one palette for all of my needs. also as both of my eyeshadow palette...

Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipstick

happy Mondays all! here is a review on the Maybelline colour sensational lipsticks in three shades - 725 tantalizing taupe, 842 rosewood pearl and 630 velvet beige. love love love these. there isn't really much else to say. they're super moisturising and hydrating and have an amazing stay power. ive never really used any of maybellines products apart from the odd mascara or baby lips. but these I am so impressed with #630 velvet beige - this is probably the darkest nude shade ive owned, and on a good day it makes my face a bit brighter and not that i'm slightly dying.. but other than this it is such a beautiful colour. #842 rosewood petal - the only colour that has tiny glitter specs. when I saw that it had these specs it worried me as I thought it may be grainy however, it is far from that and I am so so happy with it. #725 tantalizing taupe - probably my favourite of the three as well as the palest. it is so unique as ive never seen a colour...

My Skincare Routine May 2018

-
hi all! i thought i would do a skincare routine, as i found when i was slightly younger, al the products the beauty you tubers used, were pretty damn expensive. all of my skincare at the moment can be found in a drugstore, minus a few extra bits that i like to use on occasion when i feel like i need it. starting off with a day I'm wearing makeup, i use the No7 Makeup wipes, this i use to take off all my face makeup, and as much of my eye makeup as possible. for wipes £7 is a lot of money,  so life hack!  when boots have the £2 off makeup and £5 off skincare vouchers, USE THEM! you can use the £5 off on their makeup wipes and they're only £2! i tend to stock up on them when i can get them cheaper while that offer is on. after this, i use soap and glory Face soap and Clarity face wash . this has micro beads in it, and i use that all over my face to get any shit out. this stuff leaves your skin feeling so damn soft!! as for cleanser, i tend to use whateve...
